Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Pennsylvania

My question is... As the plaintiff of a civil suit in Pennsylvania I won my judgement against a organization I sued at the district judges office. They have appealed and I was served last week the notice of appeal. What is MY NEXT step? Do I wait for a trial notice of date and time to arrive next? Or do I have to file something as well? The letter I recieve said something along the lines of a 20 day deadline from time notice is filed to make a complaint or a " judgement of non pros will be filed against me.. I'm lost. And money for another lawyer is not available at this time to me.

You have 20 days to file a complaint or you lose. Many companies know the winner of a small claims judgment will do that hoping you can not file a complaint.
